Prescribed mean curvature problems on homogeneous vector bundles
Abstract
In this paper, we investigate the existence of weak singular Hermite-Einstein structures on homogeneous holomorphic vector bundles over rational homogeneous varieties. Using Cartan's highest weight theory, we establish an explicit algebraic criterion for a homogeneous vector bundle to admit a topological splitting , where and . When this condition is satisfied, the prescribed mean curvature equation completely decouples. By shifting the topological obstruction entirely to the line bundle , this splitting reduces the non-abelian prescribed mean curvature problem on to Demailly's abelian theory of singular line bundle metrics. As a main application, we obtain a sufficient algebraic condition, expressed in terms of intersection numbers, under which an -function can be realized as the mean curvature of a singular Hermitian structure on an irreducible homogeneous bundle. Ultimately, by overcoming the bounded curvature restrictions inherent to the classical Bando-Siu framework, this approach provides a robust mechanism to construct singular Hermitian structures accommodating prescribed singularities along analytic subvarieties.

38 pages, 1 figure. Substantially revised to focus strictly on the prescribed mean curvature problem. Preliminary results on geometric flows and Z-critical metrics were removed. The current version introduces a refined algebraic criterion to decouple the equation and new results on prescribing exact singularities on analytic subvarieties. Comments welcome!
